Abstract: An itinerary preparing system capable of easily preparing a complete travel plan that efficiently incorporates desired visiting places. A user inputs from a terminal an intended travel time of a trip together with visiting place information. Based on the visiting place information, a calculating section for calculating an expected consumption time in an information center calculates an expected consumption time for transportation to reach a visiting place or an expected length of stay thereat. An excess/shortage determining section compares the intended travel time with the total expected consumption time of the trip, and adjusts the intended travel time or the total consumption time based on the comparison result. Consequently, an itinerary preparing section makes a travel plan and transmits it to the terminal via an I/O section. When the received itinerary is approved at the terminal, the information center revises the itinerary by filling in free time of the itinerary. When the revised itinerary is sent back to the terminal and approved, a final itinerary is provided.

Abstract: A sheet feeding mechanism including a pick apparatus for selectively moving a
sheet of media from a stack. A kicker is disclosed in several embodiments and serves
to retain media on the stack. In a first embodiment, a cam is coupled to the pick
apparatus for deflecting the kicker from the first position at which it retains media on
the stack to a second position at which paper is allowed to move through the
mechanism. In a particular implementation of the first illustrative embodiment, the
mechanism includes a frame and a shaft mounted on the frame for rotational
movement relative thereto. The pick apparatus includes a pick tire mounted on the
shaft and adapted to rotate therewith. The kicker is mounted on the frame for
retaining media on the stack in a first position. The cam is adapted to deflect the
kicker during a first portion of a rotational cycle and to release the kicker when the
cam is in a second rotational position. In a second embodiment, the cam is contoured
to provide a protruded edge which engages the kicker when the cam is counter-rotated.
This forces the kicker to push media remaining on a separation roll back
onto the stack and is particularly well suited for printers utilizing inclined media trays.
In a third embodiment, the kicker is mounted on a shaft along with a separation roll.
In a specific implementation of this embodiment, the kicker is a flexible strip of plastic
that flexes as it engages the stack when the shaft is rotated and after it has rotated
around, pushes media remaining on the separation roll back onto the stack. Finally, a
fourth embodiment is disclosed by which the kickers are implemented with a plurality
of small gravity actuated kickers mounted between two pick tires. The kickers are
adapted to fall out of the way when the pick tires are rotating in a first direction and
to fall into position to push media back onto the stack when the pick tires are counter-rotated.

Abstract: La présente invention, qui concerne un outil de puits (10) permettant d'utiliser une boue (22) de faible viscosité pour gravillonner un intervalle, concerne également le procédé correspondant. L'outil de puits (10) est constitué d'un conduit qui inclut un crible principal (17) ainsi qu'un crible supérieur en dérivation (18). Le procédé consiste à faire descendre l'outil (10) dans l'intervalle (12) et à injecter par pompage la boue (22) dans la zone annulaire (23) entourant le crible (17).

Abstract: A multipole ion guide is configured to improve the transmission efficiency of ions which traverse the length of one ion guide and enter either another multipole ion guide such as a quadrupole mass analyzer or a three dimensional ion trap. The ion transfer multipole ion guide radial dimensions are reduced such that the pole assembly and an appropriately shaped exit lens can be positioned within a portion of the internal space defined by the larger radius second multipole ion guide poles. Ions exiting the first ion guide of reduced size find themselves inside the second ion guide close to the centerline. In this manner ions can be efficiently transferred from one ion guide to another, even for those ions with low kinetic energies. In a second embodiment of the invention, the exit region of a multipole ion guide is configured such that the multipole ion guide poles can be extended into a counterbore of a three dimensional ion trap end cap electrode. With this configuration, ions (including those with low kinetic energies) can be transferred into a three dimensional ion trap with increased trapping efficiency.
